This is the supply change-but nothing ever changes.

Pros

They have an awesome slushee machine! And, wait for it……it’s free! Mountain Dew and Coke flavors! We just moved into a new building too, even though it’s still under construction and probably 3 months from being complete.

Cons

Company is completely dysfunctional. Two opposite companies with completely different platforms trying to operate as one-and failing miserably at it. Layers upon layers of management all the way to the top. Directors with one and sometimes no direct reports who would not qualify as middle managers in word class companies. No accountability whatsoever at the senior level. Leaders who fail and can’t be coached are demoted and moved instead of processed out of the business. Support structure is abysmal, especially human resources. Routine items like field support, employee morale and development, pay and data changes are a punch line-completely incompetent. No chance of promotion at the senior level unless you are part of the inner circle. There’s even a nickname for the circle, come on, say it with me….Sad to say, but senior leaders should stay away from this company.

Pros

people I worked with in the Atlanta office-smart, driven. Interesting industry.

Cons

Arbitrarily short deadlines set then ALWAYS pushed even earlier creating a non-stop stressful environment. No system solution for forecasting and they produce more forecasts than I've seen at other companies = long hours doing manual spreadsheets and tracking multiple versions. Management doesn't push back on last minute (the only kind) from headquarters in Australia making everything worse. The president always talks about how we are "family" but doesn't care if we actually get to see our real family. VERY political environment. Constant reorganizations making it even more unstable. Trouble employees, particularly mangers, aren't dealt with and just drive good people away.
